I don't want to get texts or emails or calls from anyone I don't know or have a business relationship with because I consider that annoying and I wouldn't do that to someone else.
But if that's fine with you, then go for it.

GOTV efforts are critical to winning elections.

And GOTV means phoning, texting, knocking on doors, and other ways of reaching voters that some people may feel is "ANNOYING."

But frankly, who gives a flying F*CK if someone is a bit "annoyed" when this election is literally a battle to save Health Care and Medicare and Civil Rights and DEMOCRACY itself?

because I resent when it's done to me and I cannot rationalize that kind of personal hypocrisy away.
So I'm not doing it and I'm not sorry if that's so offensive to some. People are different and are not robots.
Besides, in 2016 I voted without needing to be reminded or begged to do it and that alone is a lot more than many on the Left did.

Anyone can say that any type of GOTV contact is "annoying." The goal is to contact as many voters who will tend to support your side as possible, and not everyone is home. And you have to especially get at infrequent voters. So you also do calls and texts and emails.

People are certainly used to calls and emails.

We won Ranked Choice Instant Runoff Voting in Maine last June BIGLY because we GOTV'd like hell mainly with calls, texts, and emails.

We did some doors too, but had limited people to do boots on the ground for a primary day situation, so in addition to a campaign mainly of tv and radio ads, social media ads, public forums, letters to the editor, signage, and some phones and door to door, the turnout effort made up mainly of calls, emails, and texts in the last week really made the difference and turned out 50,000 Indies, most of whom supported our side, but who could not vote for party candidates. They came out to vote just for this referendum. And sure, some didn't like the calls and texts, but the large majority did not complain and people are getting used to it. It's the digital age.

Volunteers like you are the foot soldiers of democracy.
